Why let the enemy almost shoot the ship to pieces and then perform such a needless maneuver when they could just have continued to blast them with phasers?
when it was clear this ST show was being written by 5yr olds, with science that is just stupid, it was time to stop watching this woke piece oof garbage.
I've seen some ugly ships in all my years of watching Star Trek, but Discovery is by far the worst. I'll take an Oberth class any day. At least that was useful.
The spinny parts go spin spin spin weeeeeee and the ship does a barrel roll and drops off the screen! Such wow! Bestest visual effect ever! I'm, of course, kidding. It's total crap and the whole thing (including torture of an alien lifeform to make it all work) is not Star Trek in the slightest.
Spore drive is so stupid, you can just magic-teleport anywhere, why bother having any colonies or anything, you can just magic teleport everything whenever you need it
You know I came to realise not a single person was penalised for effectively torturing an enslaved sentient creature. There was a Voyager episode where the Doctor refused to use knowledge obtained through torturing and murdering Bajorans, sad how many steps back Trek took.
or for being to stupid to understand distance because 500 kilometers takes 5 hours or travel at 60 miles per hour to travel those birds of prey do not look 500 kilometer's away 1 or 2 kilometers away at most
@explorer47422 But that's what Star Trek does best, prompt the audience into thought. Personhood, rights, agency, power have all been used as topic material in ST since the episode, The Cage.
>.> Who got in trouble for creating a bio weapon that threatened xenocide of the Founders; and what repercussions were there fot Sisko, when he use a weapon to render the atmosphere of an entire planet lethal to humans? Picard was willing to relocate a population against their will, because those were his orders, if memory serves. Even the noblest of leaders can be foolish, wrong, or cruel. Even the worst of villains can have a shadow of decency, virtue, or compassion. Personally, I've less an issue with the tardigrade (though very much an issue) than bio-warfare, genocide/xenocide, and forced relocation of entire populations. At least with the tardigrade, the misery of one spares the miserable deaths of billions or trillions. Doesn't make it right, but sometimes -- and these times are thankfully rare -- but sometimes nonetheless, one must choose between the monstrous and the unforgiveable. But yeah, there still ought to be punishment, lest fools and mad men imagine they're in such situations often, believing that renders them wholly beyond the grasp of justice and freed from all restraints. >.o Trek has a nasty habit of not circling back and really dealing with the messes left behind, but it ain't unique to Discovery.
I really wish they kept him as the captain throughout the whole series. I loved the premise of someone from the mirror universe being a good captain for the federation
500 kilometer is so inaccurate it should be 500 meters makes the Klingons much closer as they appear in combat and makes the battle seem more serious and dangerous
@@robertroud327 still does not change why they cannot tell distances correctly in a battle they are 500 kilometers away basically on the in another province or state away from where they are on the planet I mean seriously 500 or 1000 meters makes more sense and ads to the suspense of the scene making them seem so far away they are no threat is stupid
I hate this show, to me this destroys the premise of always trying to get to warp 10. Being scared of the borg because of trans-warp drives & it completely destroys the timeline as far as technology. Plus the burn (in the future) is basically caused by a kid because he was scared and screamed and destroyed most all the ships in the galaxy, lol. Plus tbh if this the future then why was Q asked if he was scared what would become of the federation? Could he not see past the temporal wars, lol.
Technology wise, this is the perfect example of inter arma enim silent leges, which adequately explains why it was abandoned. As for "Warp 10", the ToS and TNG era warp scales are completely different, plus TNG Tech Manual (1991) says The Traveller propelled the ship at Warp 9.9999999996, thus Voyager messed things up long before Discovery! XD
Addendum: The Borg didn't have Transwarp in TNG and First Contact but, once again, Voyager changed that and messed with the continuity. The fear factor with the Borg was you could bombard them with numerous ships and they would just keep coming.
Weird and dumb. They have no way of knowing what they left behind, and are not there to help the survivors if any. A shockwave of energy large enough to destroy every ship in the vicinity would also surely have destroyed the surface of the planet. Also, building tension by having the enemy fly closer is moronic. This lunacy breaks every core tenet of the IP...and the acting is atrocious, adding insult to injury. Was this written by J. J. Abrams?
But it have flashy neon effects and that's enough for many people. And yes that manoeuvre was utterly stupid. If goal was destroy enemy phasers were enough it would make only sense of goal was make the show for enemy go back licking wounds and tell the story about new terrible weapon but that wasn't the case. Also why the colony have shield but no weapons?
